There is New Jersey veteran
who is in trouble, and all on account
of his baby's name. He writes to the
National Tribune that he was formerly
a great admirer of Mr.. Cleveland and
labored zcalously for his election. A
son was born to the comrade on the
4th of March, 1885. and in his enthu-
siasm over the event and the inaugur-
alton of "A Democratic president on
the same day, he had the boy christen-
ed "Groyer Cleyeland." Since the
veto of the dependent pension bill, he
has gone back on the president with
a vengence, and is in deep sorrow of
heart because he cannot change the
name of the baby.-Exchange.

Under the present tariff laws, the
cheaper kinds of WOODEN blankets pay
a duty of 6S to % per cent, while the
expensive ones pay a duty of only
Go per cent. That is to say, the poor
man is charged more in proportion for
his blanket than the rich man. Com
mon window-glas such as the labor
man uses in his windows, pays duty
of from 81 to 1O1 per cent, For all
which blessings we reyerently thank
our Democratic rulers.

calculated on this, lie wanted 1.-The
trade" declared off and obtained
possession Of the transfer again In
the way we have stated
We are reliably informed that at
this time Gin 1884, short while
after the Act was passed the Gull
and Ship Island Railroad Company
so-called, was in full possession OF
the Pcnitentiary property and had
their letter heads and bill-hCads
printed in the style of the new firm,
but soon after the important dis
covery we have mentioned was
made, everything lapsed back into
the old firm name and nothing more
was heard of 1.-THE Gulf and Ship
Island Railroad Company (alias
Hamilton d Hoskins) until the
latter part of 1885, when they got
Capt w. II. Hardy and Col. W. c.
Falkner associated with them and
prepared for an onslaught on the
Legislature of 1856.
There is one circumstance we
have failed to mention, which is a
mere circumstance, and that is, that
Gen. Will Henry, q son-in-law of the
Governor, who was book keeper of
the Pcnitentiary, turned up as
Secretary of the Gulf &.Ship Island
Railroad Co. during its temporary
Control Of the Penitentiary in 1884,
but faded out with the company and
resumed his old position, and again
turned up as its Secretary in 1850;
but when the transfer again failed to
make connection, once more was
found occupying his position as
Secretary under the old lessees, and
again he comes to the front as
Secretary of the Gulf & Ship Rail
road Co. under the new lease. In
short, it doesn't matter whether the
concern was known by one name or
another, through sunshine and
shadow, it and the Governor son-in-
law have stuck together; and where
as he came to jackson a few short
years ago poor man, by reason of
the generous salary paid him by his
defaulting employers, he has since
been enabled to build Il palatial
residence and live in style on the
most fashionable street of the
Capital City.

The Democracy of Pike.

An important meeting of the Pike
county Democracy was held at
Magnolia last Monday. A primary
election was ordered to take place
the third Saturday in August to
nominate candidates for Floater,
Representative and all county and
beat offices. Dr.. Applewhit", of
Lincoln, and DR.. Ford, Of Marion,
candidates for State Senator, who
are warm personal friends, and
conducted their canvass on the same
plane as the noted Taylor brothers,
mutually submitted a request to the
Pike County Convention-not to
decide which candidate they wanted,
but which county, Marion or Lin
coin, was entitled to the Senator
ship, and pledged themselves to
abide by the decision without fur
incl COuICSG' "A NoCc WIS GihcI
and the decision was given in favor
of Marion. Both were invited
before the Convention, and both
responded in appropriate terms. A
remark OF q delegate at the close
of DR.. Applewhite's speech that "we
"ill take you next time" was re
sponded to with enthusiastic ap,
plause.
The hottest contest in the coun-
W was over the District-A Attorney
ship, the leading contestants being
Messrs. McLain and Truly. Be
fore any action was taken on this
question, Hon. A. G.. McNair, Lin
coin county's candidate, made a
short speech before the Convention
in which he formally Withdrew
from the race, leaving the entire
field to his competitors. Delegates
were appointed, and 4 motion to
instruct for McLain was carried by
a vote of 115 TO SO. This was GER
tainly e handsome endorsement of
an able, conscientious and faithful
official, and now that Pike has
started the ball with such tremend-
Gus force, we expect to see Mr..
McLain have little short of walk
over in the rest of the District.

Prentiss Bule for Representative.
Editor Brookhaven Leader:

Editor Brookhaven Leader:
Whatever be the claims of the
gentlemen who have so far been
named for the Legislature, there is
none who has superior claim to
Mr.. Prentiss Buie. His personal
fitness none will question, for he is
well known to be man of sterling,
integrity and of thorough education,
well versed in the principles of gov
ernmental science He is a success
full farmer, true Democrat and q
refined and cultured gentleman.
Lincoln county should exert herself
this year to send intelligent, compe-
tent and faithful men to the Legisla-
ture, and none could fill the bill
better than Mir. Buie. Caseyville
has always been true to the cause OF
Democracy and if the convention
recognizes our claim by nominating
Mr.. Buie for Representative, the
majority will be larger than ever
before. CAsEYvlLLE.

litical trickstcrs is not only an empty ep-
tibet but an absolute insult to tine intelli-
gence and manhood of the Democratic
yeomanry OF the county, who have the
riaht and whose bounden duty it is to at
tend the precinct meetings aud like Tree
men ever ready to to assert their rights, be
heard on political questions. The convcn-
ton when held will be the combined wis
dom of the Democracy of the county. Its
will will be the will of the party, and in
its action all loyal Democrats should
chccrfully acquiesce and zealously sus-
tain.
Your committee recognizing the fact
that the party of which it is proud to be
the representatives, is progressive, conser-
vative, patriotic and liberal, with steady
and untring purpose to fill the ranks with
all patriotic voters without regard to their
past party affiliations who are imbued
with the principles and doctrines of our
party, have in a broad and catholic spirit
extended an invitation to all legal voters
to participate in the Democratic precinct
meetings who are willing to pledge them
selves to abide by and support the action
OF the Democratic convention to assemble
If this invitation is in good faith accepted
the Democratic party of the county will
become in fact as well as in theory, most
emphatically the party Of the people and
its voice will be heard in thunder tones
when the 4th OF November shall come.
The Democracy of Lincoln when not
torn by internal strife and discord is irwin
chile, and your committee congratulate
the party upon its complete unity and
harmony upon the opening of the present
contest. 1t will move forward as one
strong man to triumphant victory. AS an
evidence of the unfaltering devotion ofthe
Democratic hosts of the county to the true
principles of the party aud their readiness
to spring with alacrity to theirsupport and
defense when jeOpardiZed, your comittee in
common with every true Democrat in the
county recur with pride to the memorable
Congressional contest between the gallant
Barksdale and Hill, when the party was
thoroughly organized and as one strong
man moved forward to victory and gave
the nominee OF the party over nine hundred
majority.
With the same united and Jealous effort
a similar triumph for the cause of liberty
and good government may be achieved in
the coming contest. ii. CASSIDY,
Chairman.

derful machinery it is Not only the
larger air-passagcs, but the thousands of
little tubes and cavities leading from
them.
When these are clogged and chok-
ed with matter which ought not to be
there, your lungs Cannot half do their
work. And what they do, they cannot
do we'll.
Call it cold. cough, Group, pncumon-

Provoked by the persistent lies,
ISLANDERS and insolence of the Jack
son Advertiser, John Martin, of the
New MissiSsippian, wrote an article
the other day denouncing W. Q.
Lowd as a black-leg, thief, and dir
tv tool of Hamilton and the Jack
son ring, and the younger Lowd as
the equal of his father in m oral tur-
pitude, and before the article was
published in the New Mississippian,
took a proof-sheet of it down to the
Advertiser office and showed it to
the Lowds and told them if they
wanted to fight about it to step out
in the street and shoot it out before
any peace officer had any chance to
know OF the affair or interfere. The
I.owds did not go out or offer TO re-
sent the insult, and Martin and a
friend who had gone with him TO
see fair play, walked away.
